Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

We live in a wonderful area…. a little village near Salzburg and have public transportation possibilities (train and bus) There are lakes, mountains and beautiful towns around us, and you can go swimming, hiking, climbing, biking and jogging….

It is also no problem, if you are vegetarian or vegan. We love cooking and you will get to know the Austrian and german kitchen.

At the weekend we could offer you, to take you out and show you around a bit – if you want.

Help

We need helping hands for gardening and some work in and outside a one-family house.

You should have experience in handling dogs because we have a big one, so if you are here, it would be great if you go for long walks with her, while we are at work and school.

We are looking forward to get to know “your cuisine” so it would be awesome if you could do the cooking sometimes…

Languages spoken

German and English

Accommodation

You would have your own room with a little bathroom and live with us in our house.

We spent 1 week with Pinja and enjoyed it very much! She immediately joined our family, was completely straightforward and open and we liked her from the beginning! Pinja is a very diligent young woman, was a great help in house and garden, cooked Finnish for us and I even enjoyed a totally relaxing massage from her! We went on a couple of trips,… read more Pinja was interested in our landscape, how we live, in football (much to the joy of my husband)😉 we had very nice conversations around the table, and a great time together - maybe we'll see each other in Finland someday ... we wish you all the best !! enjoy your trip!!

The work I got to do was also nice and really not too much and I feel that the main thing was… read more spending time together and getting to know each other and I enjoyed it a lot :)

Living here for two weeks was an absolute pleasure. From the moment I arrived I was welcomed as if I was a member of the family.

Not only were they extremely generous and hospitable, but they also put a lot of effort into making sure I had an enjoyable experience in their lovely little town, Neumarkt am Wallersee (about a half hour outside… read more Salzburg) and the surrounding region. For that, I will forever be grateful.

My main duties were to help look after their beautiful dog, Alley, tend to their (gorgeous) garden, and help clean and oil their deck.

The family has seemingly endless passions: they are near experts in gardening, coffee, outdoor adventures, cooking (gluten and vegan friendly), barbecuing...and on top of all that they own a horse!! We had lots of laughs and late night conversations— it was very sad to leave!
